He Ming looked sullen and went into his tent. I innocently asked Xi Zhan, "Second Brother, did we do something wrong?"
"No, he's upset."
He was silent for a while and asked, "What did you say just now?"
"I just spoke about Yi Leng." I said.
"So that’s why. He is afraid that he will not handle the matter properly."
"What's wrong with this?" I asked.
"What did he say to you?"
"He said that Yi Leng thought that she might as well marry him, and after all, she knew him to be a good man."
Xi Zhan explained it to me, "Why did Yi Leng choose He Ming? Because He Ming and Yi Zhi are the same. One is an illegitimate child, and the other is a drag. Both of them have a bad reputation and no family influence. Yi Leng is acting rashly because she feels wronged."
I reacted and said, "She's looking for an illegitimate son to anger the Yi family? But she doesn't have to!"
The Yi Leng I knew was not this kind of person.
"It's just my guess. It can’t be counted as true."
